English Exam
Tomorrow is the day of the English exam. All the work done in the past year will culminate in that one exam. Whatever I have or have not done will be reflected in that exam. I have gone through the various types of situational writing such as speech, formal letter, informal letter, report, proposal, article and programme leaflet. I have gone through the format, made them do it and have given samples. They have a whole book of essays. And they have practised about 7 of other school papers in the last term alone. For argumentative or expository essays they need to read the question carefully and then follow the structure they are used to. For narrative they need the descriptions and the feelings of people. So now, it's all in their hands. (I feel so helpless)It's difficult I know. They have Maths, SS, Chemistry, English, Physics and Geog all in the same week. It's going to be a draining week. Yet I hope that they remember the right things at the right time and that inspration strikes them and they write wonderful stories. God Bless All of US!
